Message: <blockquote data-quote="Atavar" data-source="post: 1570939" data-attributes="member: 7136">ThanksThanks, FireLance, for your input!I agree that at present it's short on flavor.  I've concentrated more on crunch and less on fluff so far.  I too look for good hooks in other prestige classes, though.  At present my "flavor" is mostly a brief explanation on the core idea of the prestige class.As for the crunch, this is my third whack at this prestige class.  My first version was considered way too powerful by nearly everyone I showed it to--fighter BAB, all good saves, multiple new abilities/improvements for most levels, and an increase in arcane AND divine spellcasting each level.  My second version toned things down much closer to its present form, but was still considered by my peers a bit too powerful.This third version is a bit more toned down, but the main difference is in the Master of One ability.  In the first two versions, this ability was essentially (leaving out the details) "temporarily trade in all class levels for an equal number of any of your base classes."  For example, a Clr2/Ftr2/Rog2/Wiz2/Diversifier10 could become either a Clr18, a Ftr18, a Rog18, or a Wiz18 for 18 hours a day.  He would lose all abilities not related to his temporary base class, but would obviously become a much more powerful example of that one class, and it could change from day to day.  My gaming buddies thought it was a cool concept, but a logistical bookkeeping nightmare--you would essentially need several character sheets, one for each possible class you could focus on, and use one of those sheets from day to day.For this third version I wanted to greatly simplify this ability.  So, I tried to turn the ability into a varying bonus that could somewhat simulate "trading in" class levels.Perhaps I've toned down a bit too much, and it is now underpowered compared to other prestige classes?Anyway, thanks again for your input.  I look forward to reading what others out there think!Thanks,Atavar----------"Not the face!" - Arthur</blockquote>
